> Turning off 3G/UMTS - Restrictions?
Bookmark topic
I always had 3G turned off on my W960i, as I didn't have any internet package. This helps with battery life.
Now I do have an internet package for the Satio, so what restrictions would happen if I turned off UMTS?

It would be just slower not getting the full benefits. But depends what your using the net for if its just general browsing keep it on 2G i say

On my P1i I turn 3G on only when I go online,the only reason I do it is battery life.

I turn 3G on only to download large files,otherwise my GPRS/EDGE connection is fast enough for browsing large pages.

I dunno about your country, but in mine they are starting to put up UMTS/HSDPA only cell towers. With 3g turned off, you don't get as good coverage
